Papanui Club Chat Snippets

Return to the Papanui Club
 
There are quite a number of members sharing that they are keen to return to the Pap Club which has restarted their buffet on Thursdays.
 
I checked with Board members and we are OK with this so we are going to try it next week on the 21st as a test run.
 
I spoke to Jenny at the Club and we will be back in our usual room.  We can access this from the rear door via the back car park.  Meals will be where we point to what we want at the buffet area with staff putting our choices on out plates.
 
I have also asked that we use sound distancing which means having a maximum of four of us sitting at each table which Jenny supported as a great idea.
 
As a result of this, Keith’s planned talk to us at this Thursday’s Zoom meeting has been transferred to the week afterwards at the Pap Club.  Liz & guests will still talk to those who attend this week’s Zoom on the 14th (see below) as planned.
 
 
 
Aratupu Preschool Garden Reminder
 
As covered in the last chat, our working bee at the Aratupu Preschool Garden at 97 Harewood Road is this coming Saturday the 16th of April at 9 am.
 
Remember to bring garden gloves and tools to use. We will provide morning tea.  Please let Keith know if you are free to help guide us with numbers. 
 
We look forward to seeing you then:

Recognition of Support
 
The latest Jobortunity Quarterly Report featured a reference to us as noted above.  Thx for forwarding this Stuart.
 
 
 
Our Zoom activity at 7:00 pm this Thursday the 14th of April is hearing from Liz and a visitor from the Rotary Community Breast Milk Bank who received Club Funds from the trailer raffle.  They will share more details about this valued and much in demand service with us.
 
I will send the link to this meeting out later. Remember to write the password down as it may be needed to start the session after clicking the hyperlink.
 
Note: as mentioned above, Keith’s talk on his comprehensive aviation experiences that was planned to be after this is now delayed a week as we will be back at the Papanui Club next Thursday the 21st where he is now our guest speaker.
 
 
Where Are the Easter Quiz Prizes?
 
Our fun Easter quiz was well received last week.  The winners were Jenny 1st, Lois & Tony T (2nd equal), and Keith 4th.  Thanks for another great quiz Rob!
 
These will be dropped off at your house over the Easter holiday period.
